Babies & Christenings
Cherry
Wood Rattles
Beautifully
handcrafted rattles have traditionally bought pleasure to young children
over the ages. These are handmade in England from British grown Cherry wood
and are "CE marked" for safety. With or without a Treegift
these make perfect Welcome, Christening or First Birthday presents.

properly.
